1998 S Reg Polo / 8 inch wheels

Featured Replies

Trying to push forward a swap for some 8inch wide wheels, i'm having major trouble running 16x7.5 inch borbet t's on mine at the minute, so would 15x8 front and back be a major problem? Would i get rubbing on full lock etc. Searced the forum, couldn't find a similar topic, sorry if it's been posted before, just dont wanna get the wheels and no be able to use them!

I'm gonna get some plates off there, i need to know if 8 inchers would rub (no pun intended) on full lock though. no point buying the wheels i want without it. also dont wanna do any arch work!

depends how low you are the stretch on the tyres and the et without that its impossible to say really i run 15x8 and have it sat just under the arch on the front with an 195/45 tyre and et20 and same but et 12 at the back so I'm a bout 1/2 cm gap, it rubs on the back but not on the front but my suspension is philjs car and they give lets say a firm ride
